Celtics Life reader Zack Wire created this homage to Perkins and was kind enough to send it in to us this morning. If you have a message you'd like to leave for Perk please feel free to comment here. Kendrick's manager will be passing this along to Perk.

Thanks for everything Perk!!!! Celtics nation owes you a lot and we will never forget that you helped bring us to banner 17. You showed what it was to be a true Celtic and you are forever a Celtic in my book! Good luck in Oklahoma City and wherever else your career may take you.

Kendrick, we as Celtics fans cannot express how much you have done for us over your 8 years here. You were my favorite player and I am really sad to see you go. It's unfortunate to be traded like that so quickly but I wish you the best of luck in your career.

Whenever you return to Boston, Celtic or not, you can be assured a standing ovation awaits you.

Big Man! You just got back healthy & we were so happy to see you dominating the middle again! Sorry to see you go, but that's the game. Much success & you'll get a standing O from me in my living room whenever you come back to the Garden. (Just take it easy on us, ok?!)

I guess i'm the number one celtics fan here in the philippines, a really huge fan! Though i think the trade works both ways, we'll still gonna miss that beast wearing green #43! Good luck in OKC with nate! Maraming salamat sa lahat ng alaala mong iniwan bilang isang green machine! (Thank you so much for all the memories you gave as being a green machine!) Miss you perk!!

Thank you for the growth, the swagger. Thanks for the toughness. Thanks for the rebounds, the scowls. Thanks for your defense. Thanks for being real with us. Thanks for working extra to get back from the ACL. Thanks for being a Celtic. And... Thanks for Banner 17.

Perk - you embodied everything that it means to be a Boston Celtic: heart, toughness, unselfishness, teamwork, loyalty. You should have been a Celtic for life. We miss you and wish you all the success in the world.

Thanks Perk for all the hard work, great spirit, and all the times you played through pain. Thanks for being a great team player and for all the work you did in the community. I wish you and your family the very best. I am sure your new team will love you, how could they not? Oh, and beat L.A.!

I thought I would never see the day where the best starting line up in the NBA be taken apart. I wish you the best and to me you were one of our future pieces. We will miss you a lot bruh. I will always be one of your biggest fans Perk!!!

Perk you were the Heart and Soul of this team, You brought a banner back to the garden, and never complained about not getting the love of the big 3 and rondo.....You will kill it in OKC good luck Perk all of Boston will miss you

Perk, I've never been more hurt in my life. Finding out that you were getting traded was horrible for me, as well as other Celtics fans around the world. You will be greatly missed, and I wish you the best.

Kendrick you were the biggest part of the celtics defense!!! You had a huge impact on every game when I herd they trades you I was shocked and I'm sad to see you go! I don't think Boston is gonna win it all with out you they are not complete! I hope that you win it all in okc evry 1 In Boston will miss You

Things will not be the same without you and I truly hope that the Celtics Front Office knows what they are doing. Obviously you have been a vital part of the Celtics for the fans, as can be seen by the standing ovation you received during your return back. We will miss you and wish you well in the future.

It feels very much like the morning after 2010 Finals' Game 7. Perk was gone, the Celtics lost, and there was a general feeling of relentlessness where you'd rather have other things wrong with you than the Celtics losing. You think of other things to think about only to wind up where you started the day: Celtics lost the Finals. But the lone good thing about it is, there was another season where Perk was going to be back and there would be another run. Now, well, I don't know how to get comfort from this. Because whoever the Celtics get in return, if they do get one, I just know that he isn't going to be Perk. It was a good one half season run.

Thank you for showing the us the epitome of hard work. We all could see your love for the game and how you left it all on the court for us. Your fire and strength will be missed on the court and in Boston. Good luck in OKC Perk! We'll see you in the finals! Rep that blue and gold again! heh

I was so upset to see you go Perk. I don't care who you play for and what you do you'll ALWAYS be #43 the BIG GREEN MACHINE. I love your passion, loyalty, good nature and honesty. We love you man and I'll be in the crowd when you come to Philly cheering you on. Thank you so much for giving up 8 GREAT years of hard work.

I am still upset about this trade. You will be missed, u will always be a Celtic #43 GO GREEN GO! Good Luck to u and ur family in OK City!! My son and I miss u and maybe we can go see a OK City game and wear our Green=) we <3 u

Perk your toughness unselfishness and defense was the reason for banner 17 now that your in OKC I wish you good luck and now you can help the thunder take out the Lakers in the playoffs see you in the finals Celtics vs Thunder

Wow Perks, I'm really going too miss you. You were one of my favorite player on the team. I will miss you playing on the courts with the Celtics players, and bullying other players :). Since I never met you, I pray too meet you one day since they say you are a really nice person.Goodluck and have a great season with the Thunders, and rememeber BEAT LA!

Hey Perk! I just wanted to say that you were my favorite Celtic because of how much hard work you put into every game and every practice. You are an inspiration to me and many others. I wish Danny didn't trade you, I'm really going to miss you. I'll support you where ever you go though, come back to Boston anytime big guy. Love you Perk!!! Ubuntu, don't forget celtic nation.. Good luck in Oklahoma, I'll be cheering for you!

Thanks for everything Perk. Still baffled on the trade. Your a Celtic and always will be. Best of luck in OKC, you'll bring alot to that team obviously. But I have a feeling banner 18 for the Cs left with you. Your hardwork and passion towards the game is something that should be praised and admired by everyone involved with the nba, players, coaches, owners, GMs, and fans. Thanks again and best of luckm we'll miss you big Perk.

Hi Perk, We are as saddened and shocked as you are about this trade. In the hearts of all Celtics Fans, you will always be a Celtic #43. OKC is getting a superstar and I will watch you and cheer you on every game. Thank you for being you and for all the wonderful years, you will always be brothers in green. Best of luck to you and the family....

It feels as if someone died, and it did. This trade marks the death of Ubuntu. If anyone was to be traded surely it wasn't to be the one Celtic that embodies what heart, brotherhood, cojones and pride means. I myself am going to miss the immediate reactions to have the back of a fallen brother on the court. You're last words on the camera before the huge news were:" I'm a Celtic" and to me you'll always be one. God Bless, you mean and gentle soul.

Now this just made me cry...i was sooo mad and upset yesterday with all this. I woke up this morning and said "Perk is gone"! Gonna miss you Perk, you are one of the best, you are forever a Celtic and go show OKC what you made of and win a championship. I will be following you and Nate and Kevin Durant (he's cool)!!!

My heart is breaking about this. Only a "TRUE GREEN FAN" can appreciate what a horrible decision this is. I do wish you the best of luck in OKC....but cant imagine you wearing anything but the 'green & white #43"

Perks - Boston won't be the same without you. You've been amazing the last years and it's been a blast to watch you. We'll miss you but wish you the best of luck in your career. Hopefully, one day you can wear the Green again.

You bleed green Perk and you can't change that. We love you and appreciate everything you've done!Good luck in OKC and remember couple of days ago you said "I'm a Celtic"? You were right and you always will be a celtic! Head up boy!! The garden loves you

Absolutely shocked and sad. Perks been one of my favorites in the league and an enforcer for our squad. He will be a nice fit in OKC and has a great opportunity with a rising team in the west. Let's just be glad he didn't get shipped to a team with no title aspirations.

perk, you will always be a celtic no matter what team you're on. our hearts broke when you went down in the finals last year and were put back together after all your hard work paid off and you returned this year. yesterday our hearts broke again. you showed that hard work truly pays off. you were the player celtics fans loved and other teams' fans feared. your loyal celtics fans will always cheer for you no matter what. you will surely be missed. we love you and wish you nothing but the best in OKC. beat LA!! <3 your loyal fans in LA :)p.s. i cried as i wrote this :(

Perk- Even though I wasn't in Boston for your return game to be a part of the standing ovation, please know that I was clapping for you in my little living room in Arkansas. You are and always will be a Celtic and we love you.

We miss you already! I was so happy to see you back on the court after injury. The fact that you did it a month early is just another example that shows you really know what it means to be a Celtic. You ARE a Celtic, always. It's unfortunate to see you go but I wish you the best in OKC and when we see you again you will get another standing ovation!

Perk you will be missed we LOVE U! We saw you play last month in Portland and I'm shure glad I got to see you in green before you were gone from the celtics. Yesterday was one of the saddest day in our home. It wont be the same without you and I know Rondo feels the same. We LOVE U and good luck in Oaklahoma.

Perk, since you got into the league I've had nothing but love for you. Always greedy for the ball, always wanting to win and thats the true Celtic spirit. Your defense, puts you above all in the category with Bill Russel and for that you will always be missed.

You will truly be missed by ALL Celtic fans, and we hope you nothing but the best in OKC.

Perk, its sad that the NBA is a business first because I wish the Celtics were a little more loyal to your hard work to rehab that knee... but I really wish you the best in OKC and hope you and your family settle in nicely! Keep playing hard and think of this as a compliment, every team in the league wants a defensive machine like you!

I'm very surprised they traded a bully machine like you. Your da hardest working player out there for the celtics. Good luck in OKC. Look in the the bright side, atleast your going to be in a young talented team. BEAT LA! If boston dont win this year, then i hope its OKC.

You are going to missed in the Bean Perk. Thanks for playing your heart and soul out whenever you got on the court. You gave us a lot of great years of your life and for that we will be forever grateful... God speed my Brotha.

Thank you, Perkins. I'm a Celtics fan from all the way in Hawaii, and I've still yet to go to a Celtics game live in my life, but I wish you the best. I was so sad yesterday to hear that you were traded. But at least you're at OKC, with a young team, especially with Durant, Westbrook and the others... a great team out there. Thank you, and I'll never forget everything you have done for this team.

oh man oh man oh man big perk aka beast man i've been watching you since you came in the league and every year i've watched you i grew attached to you you meant so much to this celtics team you weren't only a celtic you were apart of this family and you still are no matter what team you are on you will always be the beast #43 of the boston celtics

I'm still crying :( Hate to see family go ! We will miss you so much. In my heart I hope you will come back soon, that's the only thing that helps me get through <3All the best to you and Nate You will rock in OklahomaGo Get em !!!! <3

I think I may have cried more than u did, Perk. I felt like a family member had been ripped from my family. I dont quite understand why but I'll support you wherever you go, whatever you do. I feel like once you're a Celtic, you're FOREVER MY FAMILY! Boston loves you, I LOVE YOU, and I wish you nothing but THE BEST! I miss you already! Keep your head up baby, as I'll try to do the same. I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!

I am shocked and deeply saddened by this move, Perk. You will not be replaced in my eyes. While I wish you would be back next year with us, I know that you're much too hurt to think about ever coming back. I hope success finds you anywhere you choose to go, and if we hoist Banner 18 this year, you had just as much to do with it as anyone else.

Why? I'll be asking myself that question every celtics game that you wont be playing...I'll start watching OKC games from now on though, not to watch KD, but to watch KP!!! I dont get the trade, everyone wants you to be a Celtic, the fans, the coaches, the players... and you...So again... "Why?"...Damn, I just dont get it!!!! we're going to miss you, hope you'll have a good time in OKC, but please come back if possible, we really want you to!!!I'm pretty sure thunder games will have more viewers than normal, because I'll be watching, and I know I'm not the only one, and one day, we hope to see you back in green, the color you should be wearing!!!Do your best in OKC :)From Mads in Denmark!

That's it, crying for a second time today. Kendrick, understand that all of the fans loved you and we all LOVED your effort to come back from the ACL. I feel like you should have stayed. It's so weird when I have never seen a man in my life... An ocean divides us.. yet I cry when he leaves a basketball team. Hey, Perk... You could take some money back and sign with the Celtics next year? That's a pipe dream but all I want now is Perk back on the C's...

My closest friends and I were all in shock, as I'm sure you and the rest of the guys were. You'll always be a part of this team. It doesn't matter where you go in the league, you taught us that being a Celtic is about being tougher than anyone else out there. I was at the game this year against cleveland when you came back, and I have never lost my voice so quickly cheering. You're a hero in Boston Perk, best of luck in OKC and here's to always hoping we can see you in green again soon.

Perk my man I was devastated when I found out you were traded. I couldn't even concentrate on my class & had to leave early. You are what the definition of what a Boston Celtic truly embodies. Thanks for Banner 17, you and it will never be forgotten. When you do come back as a opposing player or if we get so lucky as Celtic you can expect a louder and longer standing ovation that you received just a few weeks ago! We'll miss you homie and good luck in OKC & knock the FAKERS out for us!

Can't say enough how much you did and still will mean to me as a fan of this team. Your play and desire are unmatched. We will miss your intensity. So sad to see you go. As someone who lives in Denver not looking forward to you beating the other team I cheer for. Take it easy on the Nugs :) thanks for the memories KP. Goodluck

Perk I love you man. Today is one of the saddest days of my live. I did even know you in personal be since the time I'm a Celtics' fan All of the Celtics players were like family to me especially you. I wish you Nothing BUT All of the Success with your new team... I'll root for them and you too besides the Celtics. I'll watch the next game you come back to Boston and I'm sure the Crowd will said it all. You are a Celtic 4 Life.

I love you Perk. Thanks for everything you've done for us. You a true Celtic. You will always be welcomed at the Garden. Fans are still scratching their head about this trade. There's a big hole in our defense now that you aren't there. Thanks for helping us bring home banner 17. I wish you nothing but the best in OKC. Just don't ever forget us because I can promise you that Celtics nation will NEVER forget you.

To the most recent Beast from the East we will miss you. My favorite Perk memory is from 2008. The bald Perk dunks on Bynum and then gives him that GTFOH stare. Enough to grab a technical, enough to grab another fan. Peace my brotherUbuntu!!

Thank you Perk for moments like these:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXdbBQ-3Rxs

We will ALWAYS love you Perk!!! You truly showed what being a Celtic is all about, and no matter what uniform you wear, you will always and forever be a Celtic to us all. I was beyond shocked and saddened to hear you had to leave us, it still hasn't hit me. This is one of the saddest times in my life of being a sports fan. I really hope that one day you'll be able to come back, because the C's just won't be right without you. Thank you so much for all the amazing times, you will be more missed than you know.

I am heartbroken to see you go. I've been one of your biggest fans since the day you were drafted. Thank you for being the epitome of what a Celtic should be. You will always be a Celtic in my heart no matter where you go and I'll be watching you in OKC and cheering for you there. I know you are going to do very well in OKC and although I hate the thought of losing you from the Celtics I think you are going to a place where you will be able to blossom and get a ring and a contract you deserve. This is stained with the tears of a broken hearted Celtics fan but I will always be a Perk fan and will always follow your career and cheer for you. Know that you will be missed and always be loved.

i never truly appreciated perkins till he went down in the finals, which is when i realized how important he was to this team. i grew fond of perk over the offseason and the beginning of the season when i saw how hard he worked to return to the team. his dedication and support for the team will be missed. thanks perk

I felt like I was punched in the gut when I saw the news yesterday. Thank you Perkins for everything over the past 8 years. You will be greatly missed by the fans of Boston and I would love to see you in Celtic green again one day. I'll be cheering for you on OKC.

I always thought Perk, alongside Rondo and Pierce, will always forever be Celtics in this new era. This trade to me was a real shocker, despite Perk not playing most of the games earlier, the team won't be the same without you man. Perk is a Celtic, and forever will be a Celtic. We Celtics fans will welcome you back home with open heart in the future, its better to finish off your career here in Boston. Very good luck to Perk in OKC, all the best and beat the Lakers for us. I'll be rooting for your team in the West. So long and nice knowing ya Kendrick Perkins!!

Perk, WE LOVE YOU!! You're one hell of a player and I was shocked when I heard you were being traded. I'm pretty sure it's been an emotional roller coaster for everyone in Boston. I wish you the best of luck in OKC. Go out there and keep doing what you do. Play 'til you can't play anymore. Don't let this move stop you from going after another ring. If the Cs don't make it to the finals, I'm rooting for you, Nate, Durant, and the rest of the Thunder team...believe that. You're going to be missed A LOT in Boston. You'll always be a Celtic! Thank you for all the memories you created with the rest of the team. LOVE YOU PERK!!

Perk, man, i was 11 when u first got drafted in 03, now im gonna be 19 in two weeks, it feels like i grew up with u. i remember in 05 when paul got ejected against indiana in the playoffs & u came in a had to shoot his FT's and missed both of them and to see how far you've come from that is amazing, you gave your heart for this team, and for all the fans, you played on bad teams and you could have given up but u never gave up ever, and it paid off in 08, we will never forget u perk, we love u man, i wish you and your family the best, thank you for the memories, i hope one day im able to shake your hand and tell you thank you to your face

You personified Celtic Pride. You did whatever was asked of you and then some. You were the heart and soul of this Celtics team and nobody will ever forget that. You will be missed greatly. You will always be a Celtic no matter where you go. Thanks for the last eight years and being a part of the resurrection of the Boston Celtics.

My heart sunk when I heard the news yesterday. You define what it means to be a true Celtic. You were our enforcer and anchor. You'll forever be missed. I hope to see you in green again. Good luck in OKC, I'll never stop cheering for one of the most genuine hard working players this game has ever seen. I love you KP!!!

Ah Perkins, you've brought so much talent, energy and compassion to this team. You have affected everyone here in the Celtic fan base, especially the news of you being traded. Once a celtic, always a celtic. We love you man and we will always support you wherever you are. Good luck and god bless you for everything that you do in the future.

talking like a realist, lets be professionalist, this is how NBA business works.But Dear Perkins, you have gone beyond giving us fans and celtic a good game.Through ur dedication and loyalty and team spirit u have made a place in our hearts.As difficult as it will be for you to not wear Green from here on, it will twice as much harder for us fans to see u in a diff jersey.but besides learning how defense is played...one thing u have taught us all is to be loyal and dedicated.and hence we shall always love you and support you.WIth every game we play from here on, celtics will feel ur absence. Its NEVER gonna be the same, winning aint gonna be as sweet and loses are gonna hit harder!WE WISH U THE BEST.loveee u perkins Green or NOT!!!

HUGE part of this team... Perk worked harder than anybody and helped make up the best starting lineup in basketball. He is a beast and always will be, OKC will be happy to have a him, and few centers have the presence that Perk does, especially on defense. We will MISS HIM GREATLY.

Thanks for everything you ever did for the green! You will be missed. I'm still trying to figure out why, but I'm sure it's nothing compared to how you feel. Good luck, and maybe you'll be a C again, who knows? Thanks again...

Thanks for all the wonderful memories, you'll truly be missed. I hope you and Nate do well in OKC, and you both are happy with where life takes you. Hopefully one day, you'll be back in Celtic green. You'll always be a Celtic in my book! Take care of yourself..

We REALLY gonna miss you Mr Perkins, you are a true joy to watch and we'll never forget all you did for Celtics. Now go be a Star at OKC and show those fans what you showed us:) A big thumbs up for just being you! God bless...xoxo!

Totally disgusted with this trade, when I think of the celtics it's impossible not to think of Perkins being there. He is a Celtic and Always will be to me. I wish him nothing but the best and hope that one day he will come back so I can see my team whole again. Very sad day today for Boston fans. Love you Perk and good luck with the Thunder :(

You are the essence of what it means to be a Celtic. I understand this is a business but you cannot put a price on drive, determination, heart, teamwork and unbuntu. Good luck with OKC and I will fly up to Boston next season to see you play in person again.

Kendrick we've all been shocked... But THANK YOU for all the dedication you gave to us! Banner 17 would of not been possible if it wasn't for you as we all saw last year!! YOU WILL BE MISSED along with Nate!! Good Luck in your OKCity run!! YOU WILL ALWAYS BE A CELTIC!!!!

Time to go Beastin' out West, Perkulator. Thanks for all you've done for the Celtics. No matter what happens, you can always be proud and you can always keep your head up; you are a warrior and you busted your butt on a Championship team. We won't ever forget that. Happy trails, Perk.

Hate to see you go Perk. The Celtics aren't the Celtics without you. Your presence is going to be missed on and off the court. You were one of the biggest parts of the team and I hope we can still win it all. Best of luck to you in everything you do. If there was one western team id want you to be on its the thunder. Just beat those damn lakers!

Thank you for your years of dedication and hard work for the Celtics. Us Celtics fans absolutely adore you and are heartbroken about Danny's decision. You will always have a special place in our hearts and will always be welcomed at the Garden. Hopefully you will one day find yourself back to wearing Celtics Green, but if not, I will be cheering very hard for you and the Thunder.

You will be greatly missed by your fans and teammates. Keep on being a BEAST!!

It feels weird watching this team knowing that Perk is gone. He was an irreplaceable part of the recently formed Celtics identity. I don't know what Ubuntu will be like without him.

Best of luck to Perk. He will be missed.

I've already liked Durant, but now Oklahoma is my other favorite team in the West, and I'll be following their games whenever I can. I'd love to see Perk in the Finals this season, I hope he gets that honor.

THIS IS SOME SAD SHIT,I DROVE FROM TENNESSEE 2 SEE U PLAY.I THINK ALL THE OTHERS SHOULD KICK DANNY S ASS BESIDES DONT WE NOW HAVE ROSTER SPOTS OPEN,WHY WE HAVE TO TRADE PERK.I THINK KP IS MORE A CELTIC THAN DANNY AINGE PUNK ASS.JUST NO US FANS LOVE & THANK YOU MORE THAN U REALIZE BIG MAN. ONE LOVE,BLEED GREEN!

Perk - it's been great to watch you develop as a player and a teammate over the past years. You played with great emotion and it's something we won't forget. We are sad to see you go, but wish you the best of luck in OKC!

Perrrrrk!!! Man we are going to miss u in that green (I already do). Had a good 8 years and thank you for all you've done. I know it was hard but let's goooooooo get to working on the next 8. I'm a fan where ever u go!!! Best Wishes...SHOWOUT Love ya Perk...

KEEP YOUR HEAD UP BIG PERK. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE A CELTIC. I FELT REALLY SAD WHEN I HEARD THE NEWS. LIKE I LOST A BROTHER. HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET YOU BACK NEXT YEAR. I WISH YOU GREATNESS. YOU WILL TRULY BE MISSED. CELTICS 4 LIFE BIG HOMIE.... 43 STAND UP.

Good luck in OKC Perk. You will be missed here in the Bean. Although my husband continues to make fun of me for becoming "emotionally invested" in players, this one really hurts. Thank you for all you have given us, and I hope to see you back in green some day!

Ahhh...Perk! How I will miss you so :( it's like a bad divorce and you're the kid that keeps getting pushed around. I'm definitely going to miss seeing you play in a green jersey, but no matter what color you're in you'll always be a part of the Celtic's legacy and family! Best of luck in OKC and can't wait to see you in the Garden again even if you're in a different jersey.

It's been a pleasure watching you go from an awkward straight-out-of-high-school rookie to a tested veteran presence. I've been calling you the best defensive center in the NBA for a few years now. You are.

I was planning on you and Rondo taking the team into the future when Ray KG and Pierce left the game, but things never work out like you plan them.

Good luck in OKC, and wherever you end up in the future. Just keep beasting the rest of the NBA.

You poured your heart and soul into your craft and us fans will always remember that. We all know that this is a business but that doesn't make parting any easier for you, your teammates or fans. I hope you can remember the good times and know that you will ALWAYS be loved in Boston.

Perk, nobody in Boston wanted to see you go.. Not your teammates, not your fans.. We'll miss you. We love you. You'll do great things for the Thunder.. People are now calling them a championship team because of YOU. Use this as an opportunity. Wish you the best, 43!

PERK,I know there's a business side to the game but Boston lost someone special today! I felt so bad when you were injured in LA and to see you work so hard to get back to your brothers was inspiring - it just re-enforced what Celtics Pride is all about. You will ALWAYS be a champion, a friend and a Celtic. If it were possible, I would have given the Celts whatever it took to keep you here. You will be successful wherever you go and the Thunder just became a real threat in the West - because of you. I've traveled from Hawaii to Boston many times just to see you guy play.

Even if the Celts do win a title this year, it just wont be the same. I know it's a business but there better be a Championship ring made for you my man. You deserve it. I just hope that somehow you'll be wearing the Celtics Green again next season.

Keep your head up and give the Thunder your best.... just like you always did for us! The Celtics should retire your number to the rafters Perk - that's how important a player and a person you are to us, and don't let anyone EVER tell you different.

PERK!!! Words cant explain how much you are going to be missed! I think all of your teammates and every celtics fan in this city are devastated & heartbroken today! I am really really really sad about this! Thank you for the 8 great years of dedication to the Celtics organization! You are the perfect example of hard work, loyalty, passion & toughness! You were a giant part of the reason opposing teams feared us! I am not sure there is another player out there that is going to be able to fill your shoes, both on and off the court! But I know you are going to do well in OKC...myself and the rest of Boston will be rooting for you and who knows, maybe someday you will end up back in that Celtics uniform! I know in the bottom of your heart and ours too, you will ALWAYS bleed green! As far as the fans are concerned, #43 will always be welcomed back here! In the meantime, do your thing out there! OKC is getting an amazing man & teammate & I hope they take care of you there! You are already missed! <3
